​Are you a man who's been thinking about dance, but just not sure about when or how to start? Or maybe you're thinking twice about making the investment? Maybe you have actually been talking about it for a while, but haven't yet gotten around to it? Maybe you have just not found the right place. Unfortunately, most studios do not provide packages for men. But at Destine Dance we want to see more men dancing. All our ladies keep asking for men like you to come to our lessons and events. That's why we have the solution for you and us and out ladies.

What is the Man Pack?

The man pack is based on a generic promo offer that we once ran. We noticed 2 things about this offer:

It was popular with men.

The men who did it improved faster than we have EVER seen men improve in the past.

​Because of these benefits, we decided to make it a standard package for men considering dance. You can still choose one of the other lesson options, but this one might be right for you.

The Man Pack is a 4 week program of different types of lessons and social events (all with women as well) to quickly make you a good dancer. The program includes:

A 1 hour private lesson with a female instructor so you can focus on the specific talents you wish to develop

Over this period you will get around 30 hours of dance tuition and guided practice. This would normally cost you more than $500. At $49, this package is incredible value: around 90% off! ​As on past student said - each lesson costs about the same as a packet of Twisties!

What the Man Pack will do for you

The fact is, men need more investment when it comes to starting dance. There are a few reasons for this, and they all relate to the fact that it is usually men who lead. Some of the needs placed on men are:

You need to know the figures that you are going to lead before you lead them - that means you are doing 2 things at once.

You need to move your arms to lead while also keeping your footwork going. That can be demanding when you are still learning figures.

On top of the above you need to do this in time so you are also focusing on the music.

Men often struggle a bit with the music too. It is more common for girls to do some kind of dance than it is for boys. The musicality can then be latent within ladies; not so much with gentlemen.

All these mean extra time and effort is needed for men. And that's what you get: investment in you!

The key to the effectiveness of the Man Pack is its intensity. By dancing that many hours a week, you do not need to worry about practice between classes. The fact that you are going to classes regularly means you are getting your practice in. Women who have danced with men doing this course have commented on how men get noticeably better by the end of the first week.

Over the 4 weeks of intense dance lessons you will get the amount of teaching that most people will only get after 4 months - with different women and one different dance styles. This gives you an excellent foundation in dance and really supercharges you rate of improvement. If you want to get good fast, then this is the way to do it.

The Man Pack is also very low risk. Many other packages will cost $100s or even $1000s. This package is less than $50. If you start the program and change your mind part way through, then you have lost very little, and can walk away anytime you want. The Man Pack is the best way to try out dance so you can see what you really think of it with no worries about risking your investment.

More about the Man Pack (FAQ)

Why even learn to dance?If you have not read the page on why men should dance, then you have not yet seen the photos below of various dance events around Melbourne. These men are different in many ways. However, you can see that all of them enjoy dance. You could easily be one of them and the Man Pack is the best way to get started.

Doesn't this exclude women?​It was mentioned above why dance can be more of a challenge for gentlemen. However, what was not mentioned was how frequently ladies raise issues of not having enough men of a good standard to dance with. This was another reason for the program - the demand from ladies. This program was actually run past a few female students at Destine Dance before it was launched and the feedback was more than positive. Thus, because it is helping gentlemen so that ladies have what they want, more gentlemen to dance with, it is not about exclusion. It is about solving a problem.

Can I start the program whenever I want?Yes and no. There are periods where starting is more optimum than it is for other periods. When you make contact we will get back to you on a good time to start. Basically, we try to get you to start at the beginning of our proficiency course cycle. By doing that, you are dancing with people at your level, and you can learn better. However, it's often not an issue if you come in a little late - you will actually pick things up quickly. Fill out the form above and we can talk about the best time for you to start

How fast will I learn?Faster than you think. The key to becoming a good dancer is practice. The more dedicated the practice the better. Typically, it takes about 20 hours of practice to become a good dancer. By good, we mean you're a one who can do the basics and other people say "He can dance" when they mention you. Because you are going to get 30 hours of practice you will feel yourself hit this point before the end of the 4 weeks. Then you will have some more time to refine those skills. In 4 weeks, you get the same amount of training most people get in 4 months.

You might also simply choose to keep attending our regular social nights. You can use your newly developed skills to feel confident when you do. That way you would have secured a regular social event in your week that gets you out of the house and meeting people.

You can also work toward becoming the kind of man that is always in high demand when you go to a dance. You would do this by getting straight into private lessons to really see your dance ability take off.

You might also do a mix of the above. You will have many options open to you. This is because the world of dance would have been opened to you, and you will know which of your options suits you best.

When do I do the private lesson?You can choose this at a time that suits you. You might want a private early on to feel prepared for the group classes or you might want to wait until you have done some group lessons so you know what you want to work on. If you are unsure, then you can always buy an extra private so that you get the best of both. The time does also need to be one that a teacher is available. So once you know when you want it, it is best that you book it straight away.

Is the fee refundable if I do not like the program?We want you to give the lessons a good try so extracting yourself from the program part way through is discouraged by not allowing refunds. However, if external or extraordinary issues prevent you from completing the program, then we can hold your place for the next opportunity or refund before the program starts.

What about ladies who want to lead?We can probably help you with what you want. Drop us a line and we will get things sorted.

What is I can't make all the classes?We have probably never seen a man who was able to make all the classes. And they all still danced well at the end. Because we have nominally 30 hours of dance, you can afford to miss some classes and still be good at the end of the 4 weeks.

I still have a question: what do I do?Contact us and we can talk more about what you want to know.
